Description

Lincoln & Hamlin: The First Photographic Jugate Political
Pin. Ferrotypes arrived with a bang in the election of 1860,
and among the inventive designs were "uniside" jugates for all four
compelling presidential tickets. These designs have a tendency to
come with some bubbling of the surface emulsion, but this is a
choice, well-centered example with a beautiful, smooth surface. The
only negative is the absence of a pin on verso. Diameter 21mm. From
the Merrill C. Berman Collection.
